We only came for lunch. The lady who I suspect is the owner was an extraordinary mix of tolerant and intolerant. We had been mountain biking and were rather muddy. She did not mind us coming into eat with mud on our clothes which was a plus but then again the place was empty so I imagine she was pleased... more

We have visited the Achiliy Hotel on numerous occasions over the past 8 years. We have never had a bad meal and the chef in addition to his excellent culinary skills is also a comedian at heart. We always come away in good spirits and what can be better after a good meal. I read these other reviews with interest... more

I have dined at the Achilty Hotel for many years when I have stayed in the Contin area visiting my parents. I have always had what I can only describe as an outstanding meal on each and every occasion, accompanied by excellent service and hospitality. The chef and joint owner Chris always makes a point of welcoming his guests personally... more

We stopped at this hotel on Sunday 13th September. Holidaying in the highlands and en route to Inverness we decided to stop for Sunday luch. A party of 4 myself and my husband and my mum (disabled with arthritis and osteporosis with the added complication of a broken toe) and my dad 70 years old and diabetic. We drew up... more

My Dad & I have stayed at the Achilty Hotel with Chris & Ethel Slater at least once a year for 7 to 8 nights whilst fishing the local River Conon. In most recent years we have stretched our stay to sometimes twice a year for an additional week. We would not wish to stay at any other hotel whilst... more

There were a lot of us staying in the hotel and the staff could not have been more welcoming and friendly. We had delicious food throughout the weekend. The breakfasts are so good that you are set up for the day - and the glorious walks that are right on the doorstep. For children of all ages, the beach at... more

Have an unremarkable experience at the restaurant a few months back, though the hotel was neither clean nor quiet. Went back today to go for a cycle and then for dinner, but were chased out of the car park by a man in chef trousers who shouted at us. I'm sorry, but there are numerous wonderful restaurants and hotels in... more

I ask this person why he was parking in The Hotel car park , which is for patrons only . He made the excuse he would be eating later. To my certain knowledge this person has NEVER eaten in the Hotel and therefore would not know the standard of food. Also if he had eaten here he would have known...

Made to feel at home on arrival. Excellent cheerful service. Rooms very comfortable and well furnished. Excellent food well presented, even to the extent of offering to provide food not actually on the menu. Very helpful, provided us with a wonderful holiday taking a genuine interest that we enjoyed ourselves without being intrusive. more

I have visited this part of the world for many years now and it hard to beat the warm welcome and value for money at this small hotel run by Christopher and Ethel Slater. Its well located on the main road to Ullapool. It is possible to walk out of the hotel along a quiet single track road to the... more

We have just come back from a wonderful weekend at Achilty. Ethel and Chris could not have been more welcoming. The young children were provided with high tea at 5.30 so that the adults were able to relax over their meal later on and the food was absolutely delicious. We were well looked after by the staff especially Joanna who... more
